Everybody selects somebody from the WWE roster, no duplicates allowed. If the contest hasn't yet started, you can change your selection once by making a new post saying you're changing your selection (don't just edit your original post).

Your wrestler is eliminated if he or she submits or is pinned during a televised match on Raw, SmackDown, 205 Live, Main Event or a Network (formerly PPV) event. Disqualifications, count outs, or being eliminated from a battle royal / Royal Rumble does not cause elimination. In multi-man matches (tag, triple threat, etc.), only the person who is pinned or submits is out. NXT does not count and NXT exclusive wrestlers are wasted picks. Main roster WWE Network Specials (ie. Tribute to the Troops) DO count.

Anything the poster RP says in relation to the rules not being favourable for the poster RP should be met with at least one post containing a quote of said post and a single winky face only. Failure to comply with the rule will result in further rules regarding the poster RP and will be generated entirely at random.

In the event of a match finishing via KNOCKOUT, the Small Council of Elders have met and come to the majority decision that from season XXVII onwards a KNOCKOUT will count as an ELIMINATION. This will effectively be a slight nerf to the character Roman Reigns.

Your wrestler will also be eliminated if he or she goes three weeks without having a televised match in a WWE ring for any reason whatsoever (injury, future endeavors, etc.). There is a constant countdown going on from your wrestler's last match, so even if bad luck happens - you can still potentially win as long as everyone else loses in that span. In the event of two or more competitors being eliminated on the same day due to this rule and that impacting on podium positions (rank 1-3), the wrestler positions will be determined by time of last performance (meaning main eventing is more valuable than opening). In addition, the three week ruling will occur at the end of a show if one is running concurrent to the cut off date, meaning anyone who loses on the show will place lower than whoever gets three week'd. If you suffer a ban for the length of the game you will be disqualified.

If you win you get your choice of either first pick next season or two picks for the next season. If you take the option of two picks, you must wait until at least three other people have selected in order to prevent you from becoming The Skippord. If you are inactive upon winning to the creation of the next season, you will not get first pick and instead get 2 picks. In accordance with previous versions of this rule, new seasons will only be created after a minimum wait period of two days.

A wrestler must be an active participant in a match for it to reset the three-week timer. Lumberjacks, special referees, managers, "enforcers," guest commentators, etc. do NOT count.

Sign-ups are allowed until the start of the pre-show of the 19th November 2017 edition of WWE Survivor Series at the start of the pre-show, in the beginning of this night, right then, on Sunday, November 19, on this day, eliminations will be eliminated, starting on this show, on the WWE television, in the genesis of McGillicutty.

Winning wrestlers must sit out 3 seasons before returning. "The BIGDOG" Roman Reigns is out for winning Season 26. Dirty Dean Ambrose is out for winning Season 27. Shelty Benjyman is out for winning Season 28.

I will be participating in the game, but in the interest of fairness, I won't make my pick until at least ten wrestlers have been chosen and will then probably just waste my pick on Fandango.

For winning season XXVIII, Lock Jaw has waited out the interim period without making a decision. As a result, we have crowned a NEW TPWW Survivor Champion, as yet another title is awarded to Vacant. Congratulations, Vacant!

Vacant has decided to choose himself, Vacant, as first pick in an unprecedented move. How will Lock Jaw respond when he gets to make two picks once at least three other competitors have made selections? That remains to be seen.
